The Wood- x yiU» Advocate, jpobUahei iu North Ontario, disoosaes the situation calmly and sensibly in an editorial from whioh we clip the fof- lovrinff ; — " We learn that warrants for oonimitt- ment to mfi hang over the heads of most of the hotelkeepersln the North Riding, and on the next codiplalnt they Will b* ekeooted, still leaving the now ohanie to follow. IT.um this it is easy to see that the life of the liqnor seller is not by any means ' a happy one," and with the prospect of prison bars aonstantly before his eyes, the pvoAts of the busioMS appear in a sowawhat oloaded form, r . At this late hour let 9s ask what has been the mult of this act in this cotmty. Has it aoaomplishad the pnrpose intended, or has it done sufficient good in the prohibitive line to warrant the people in supporting it again ? To these qnestions some will say yes, others no. It the oonaideration of this matter it must be remembered that ths aot has not had a fair trial in Ontario. Until receiitly no real effort was made to enfore the law,|aud in ibe face of nniympatiiatio officials and the obstacles of legislstive oou- struotion which have been enacted since its introduction here, it oould not be expected to work very satisfactorily. In spite of this, however, no one can honestly say that dmnkenness and its aooompanytag results has not besnahated; thisisevidMitto themost oaanal observar, and moreover the educative inflneuce of the law has been such that the use of liquor is now looked upon as being decidedly 'not the thing* and respeotabls.

Addressing the Oraud Jury at St. Thomas Out, recently, his Honoi Judge Hughes re- ferred at some length to the S«>tt Act agita- tion, and his words will naturally carry with them great weight. Remarking on the constant violations of the present licenss laws, he said the liquor sellers pay very little heed to the observance of anything but selltns[ as much liquor as it is possible to net rid of. His Honor went on to say -. — "The argument that thousands of dollars now de- rived from the License Fund would bavu to be paid by the farmers and others, mnst fall to the ground, because money would not bo required for maintaining drunkards in our ftaols, which is now expended as the result of their debauched lives, enifendered by a legal- ized, yet immoral tiaitic.
